Frigidaire Ice and Freezer Features
How Frigidaire Ice Makers and Freezers Work
On dispenser models the bin uses an auger that can freeze in place when ice melts and refreezes, and a rotated auger has to be realigned in 45-degree steps before the bin will seat. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
Air left in a newly connected water line can cause two or three empty ice cycles, and running the ice maker with no water supply can make the fill valve chatter loudly. Source: Frigidaire - My refrigerator was just installed and the ice maker is not working, how do I fix it?

Freezer and Ice Maker Notes for Sachse, TX
Most ice maker calls in Sachse come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
